Happy New Year!
So my first blog post of 2019 is for this amazing read from Linn B.Halton. Thank you to Rachel's Random Resources for inviting me to take part in the blog tour. I hope you all enjoy my review.
Book Description
More than just a holiday romance?
Her daughter, her job and divorcing her untrustworthy ex are Leah’s main priorities. She isn’t really bothered that her life might be missing a few things. But after winning a prestigious travel blogger award, she’s inundated with offers to review glamorous holiday destinations. Lying around drinking exotic cocktails and being paid for it! What could be better?
Perhaps a romantic trip to idyllic Greece to find the one man who might make Leah risk her heart again...
My Review
This book is such a treat and perfect for bringing a ray of sunshine to a grey and dreary January day. Leah is finally getting back on top of life after the devastation caused by her ex husband living her high and dry with their 2 year old daughter, Rosie, and a mountain of debt. Leah has worked hard to give herself and Rosie a better life and all that pays off after Leah wins a travel Blogging award, giving her blog the boost it needs to allow Leah to work on it full time. This gives her more time with Rosie and gives them more chances of luxurious trips away together. It is on one of these five star trips that Leah and Rosie have the opportunity to visit Greece. It is on this trip that they meet up with Daniel and his daughter Bella. They spend the days together seeing the iconic sights that Greece has to offer and it isn't long before there is a spark between Leah and Daniel, one that Leah is keen to dismiss as she doesn't want to get her heart broken again but is it worth the risk of finding happiness?
This book is so descriptive and you can almost feel the sun shining down on you and have you reaching for a chilled glass of wine. Linn does a fantastic job of describing all of the sights in Greece making you feel as if you are there visiting them too. I really liked the character of Leah, you can see she has been through a rough time with her ex husband and you can see how this has made her stronger and more determined to succeed at everything she does. I think that Daniel sounds like he has been through a lot in his life and is doing all he can for his daughter Bella.
I really enjoyed reading this book from start to finish and I'm looking forward to seeing what Linn brings us next.
